Supro · amplifier
The Supro 1695TJ Black Magick is a variant of the Black Magick line, the range modelled on Jimmy Page's 1959 Supro combo that produced most of the guitar tones on Led Zeppelin I. Like the rest of the family it is a 25-watt all-tube Class A design built around 6973 output tubes, which give the distinctive Supro midrange grind and strong touch sensitivity, and Supro rate the Black Magick circuit as the highest-gain amplifier in their catalogue. Detailed independent coverage separating this particular variant from the other Black Magick models is limited, so the description here stays with what applies to the circuit as a whole.
